Stuff we need right now, or "next" -- IE, stuff we're going to have to go out and buy if nobody comes up with it.

Garage Shelving -- The kind of heavy-duty shelving that you stick in your garage to put boxes of stuff on -- like this, or similar. We're also willing and eager to accept wire bakers-rack style shelving, but it's more expensive :)

Plastic bins -- Rubbermaid style plastic bins with lids, of various sizes, suitable for projects. Bring in a box for your project!

20 folding chairs -- something like these Bring any number you have to spare. They do not need to match!

Plug-in USB charger for e.g. Motorola/HTC phone - The official Noisebridge Phone charges by USB, so it would be very good to have a charger! Something like this.

Furniture and Furnishings

4 or 5 folding banquet tables

Trashcans -- 2 large kitchen-style trash cans

Room Dividing Bookcase -- Something like [1] that is free-standing, wide and tall

A comprehensive first aid kit

<del>5-10 power strips

a 24 foot ladder (preferably extending, for ease of storage)

a stereo system or other music solution

2 garbage cans (25 or 30 gallon) for recycling + garbage

2'x4'x1/2" plywood for installing equipment in the wiring closet

7 bar-height stools suitable for shop seating -- stuff to sit on at the work bench

Garage Shelving -- the metal kind with all the holes in it, with particle board shelves -- various heights needed, consult build team.

Work Table -- One 6' by 2' or so *sturdy* work table (my 300 pound self should be able to stand on it without feeling it wobble)

Work Table -- One 4' by 2' or so (4' wide at most, it's for a specific space) *sturdy* worktable

Theremin sink controller Turning on water without touching anything directly.

Raw Materials

2 Sheets of 1" Hardwood Ply -- the good stuff, this is for work surfaces. We actually need about 20' of 2-foot wide work surface.

50' of 1" galvanized steel pipe -- Legs for our workbenches.

Electronics

It would be cool to have

a soldering station (several!)

clamps and vises

an oscilloscope

with high voltage probes, please?

a function generator

a regulated power supply

It's pretty easy to build a variable (0-24V) DC power supply. I built the one on my bench and it's been very reliable. It's a good one-afternoon project; I can run a workshop if people will bring their own parts. Mlp 23:08, 1 October 2008 (PDT)

Storage

Safety

Fire extinguishers: several more fire extinguishers would be useful in preparation for having functioning kitchen and lab space. Several kinds of extinguisher would be useful for various parts of the space.

Bucket of sand. Check it once a week to make sure that the sand hasn't accreted into a solid block.

Nitrile gloves - 3 boxes - should always be in stock; they can be had cheap from American Science and Surplus.
